Collection of Midkiff Learning Center. They were digitized in 2015. Box 3
The acquisition of the Prince of Hawai’i, an operetta, is a complex story. On January 29, 2002, the President and Headmaster of Kamehameha Schools, Michael Chun, Ph.D., received a letter from Mokuaikaua Church on the Big Island. A parishioner donated the manuscript for their fundraiser. “…an independent estimate sets its worth at $25, 000. We will be offering the piece at auction with an upset price of $8,000.” (From the January 28, 2002 letter)
Dr. Chun said “Frankly, it would be difficult to justify expenditure of the upset price. If, however, …[if]…it were to be gifted to KS!”
Archivist Janet Zisk replied, “ Acquiring the original hand-written score by King would complete this set of materials and it should, by rights, be at Kamehameha Schools…What about you or I or both of us approaching the Trustees to see if they know of anyone who would like to donate this treasure to KS?...”
In a 2007 memorandum to Stacy Rosehill-Baker, KS Legal Assistant, Zisk wrote, “The first nine pages are my attempts at persuading administration to act or acquiring the King manuscript. It didn’t happen. Only when David Peters interceded was there action on acquiring this wonderful Charles E. King composition.”
In a memo to Trustee Douglas Ing, David M. Peters wrote, “This manuscript was willed to Kalehua Meheula by the late Zilla Young, a former music teacher at Kamehameha Schools [and 1963 Kamehameha School for Girls graduate]. Kalehua’s hope was that this manuscript would stay in Hawai’i. The items were put up for bid and the bid was won by Mrs. Patty Cook. It was discovered that she was going to put the item up for sale on eBay. Kalehua discussed the matter with Reverend Henry Bouchard, and it was decided that they did not want the manuscript to leave Hawai’i and withdrew the item from the items sold.
Zilla Young’s grandmother and Charles E. King’s mother were sisters…” In 2002, Zisk hired Mr. Don Severson, appraiser, to authenticate the manuscript. The
assigned appraisal price was $12,000. No further emails were provided. No receipt was provided. Since Kamehameha Schools
has physical possession of the manuscript, it is assumed that the item was purchased as recommended by the appraiser.

Biographical Note Charles E. King, Charles Edward King, was born on January 29, 1874 in Honolulu to Mary Ann King and Walter Brash. He was a member of the first graduating Class of 1891 of the Kamehameha School for Boys. Charles Reed Bishop, husband of founder Bernice Pauahi Bishop, sponsored King and Samuel Keliinoi to attend Osweqo Normal School in Oswego, New York. These two men were the first college graduates of Kamehameha School for Boys. Another classmate in the Class of 1891 was composer Matthew Kane. King returned to teach at Kamehameha School for Boys for two years and became a principal. He taught music and music theory.
Music was a lifelong interest. He was comfortable in a multicultural world and the world of the ali’i. Queen Emma was his godmother and Queen Lili’uokalani was his music teacher and a great musical influence.
Although only a quarter Hawaiian, he was fluent in the Hawaiian language and knowledgeable in Hawaiian culture and history…He was particularly fascinated by the mele oli and mele hula and knew their texts and meanings well—all of which became a source of both inspiration and material for his own compositions…He was also a keen student of the metamorphosis of chants into melodic songs…He epitomized the ‘royal style,’ as it were, but he also brought it to its zenith through the quantity and quality of his output. But because of his training and exposure, he actually transcended the accomplishments of his mentors by introducing or developing more sophisticated melodies and harmonic structures and greatly enlarging the thematic scale of his compositions.
He was an innovator, but he was very much a traditionalist…These standards, which were more or less taken for granted and unarticulated until King came along, were” (1) lyrics of Hawaiian songs should be in the Hawaiian language, (2) the subject of a song should be about Hawai’i and (3) the melodic quality should be nahenahe (sweet) and the tempo not ‘jazzed up’…
King once said: ‘Let us have enough pride in our own music to keep it pure.’ By that he presumably meant ‘Hawaiian…’ Among Hawaiian composers of his day, King was one of the best grounded in the fundamentals of music theory. Not only had he studied music from his youth, but he had also taught it in schools for many years. He displayed his technical mastery not only in his compositions—but also in his numerous arrangements, in his ability to play a variety of instruments and in his conducting of musical ensembles. He was, for example, conductor of the Royal Hawaiian Band for three years…(From Hawaiian Music and Musicians , an illustrated history edited by George Kanahele, pages 214-217.)
His later years were more devoted to the music publication business and to television.
King was active in the Kamehameha Schools Alumni Association and devoted to the Schools. Some songs specifically written with the Schools in mind are Kiu A Wela, Imua Kamehameha!, Lawe A Lilo, Kamehameha Waltz and Ku’u Kamehameha. He did not begin composing until he was 42 years old. He held a variety of jobs such as inspector Territorial public schools, senator in the Territorial legislature, and conductor of the Royal Hawaiian Band, and radio host. In 1940, he joined the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) to receive royalties for his compositions. He moved to New York City to be closer to his music distribution business, the Charles E. King Music Co. Inc. There, he married Regina P. Hughes and adopted her daughter, Joan.
-
According to a Sun Sentinel (Florida) newspaper obituary of Regina P. King, she was a longtime resident of Pompano Beach and married King in the early 1920’s. They moved to Miami in 1925. They moved back to New York and after Kings death, Mrs. King moved to Pompano Beach with the music company. Survivors are her son John Benedickt of New York, a daughter, Joan Jenny of Pompano Beach, four grandchildren, Joan Maramba, and Kyle Stewart of Boca Raton, William C. McCue and Cheryl Parker of Fort Lauderdale and seven great grandchildren. (From the Sun Sentinel, March 10, 1987) King died on February 27, 1950 in Elmhurst, New York, U.S.A.
